My inventory is completely packed out from water crystals, land crab meat and a nice amount of beastmen and kindred seals, so I head back to town to offload some equipment. I have also collected 6 crawler cocoons, which do not stack, I take 3 lightning crystals and turn these into silk threads and pass them onto Paul. I also have 2 H.Q. crab shells which I also pass on. Paul puts these all onto the AH and as Jay is around we decide to go off to complete this week's Tactics Pearl quest - I cannot forget I still need to complete my Chocobo Race as well before Sunday.


We enter and make up our way up to the second floor where we know we can get some nice EXP for the NPCs. We tally off around 30 mobs and are proceeding to collect the ??? when we come up against a real challenge and eventually I end up dying. Thankfully, Jay finishes the mob off and collects 2,100 EXP for his NPC. I HP back to Aht Urhgan knowing that I will have to wait until after 16:00 tomorrow before I can try again.

This is not a problem so I head back to The Boyahda Tree and skill up club to 190 - this will do for the moment on club - the skill ups are slowing down for some reason. Epi is about 70% through 61 and I am 15,234 TNL now.
